Greed

By Elbie Dee

Life has a way of handing Laylah Stoll oranges, expecting her to make lemonade.

With a history of being in foster care and addicts for parents, Laylah moves desperately to escape the ragged, rundown apartment complex that's been the cornerstone of her life. With no money and a dream, Laylah brainstorms the ultimate move to get her and her younger siblings out the hood, but not without a cost. Laylah's plan becomes profitable, but it isn't long before an adversary steals her newfound trade right from under her nose.

With nowhere else to turn, Laylah crafts a final ploy, but her lust for greed begins to consume her, leaving Laylah wishing she could go back to her humble, impoverished beginnings.

What's so tragic that Laylah wishes to go back to the very place she fought so hard to escape? Prepare yourselves for this drama filled, urban fiction story with a modern twist on what it means for greed to engulf the soul.
